The Neppy Collection Extra Fine Merino Wool Tops represents a creative fiber with distinctive character, obtained from extra fine merino wool enriched with viscose inclusions that generate a delicate slub effect. This particular processing gives the fiber a dynamic and irregular appearance, with small visual contrasts that add depth and movement to the material. Ideal for spinning, weaving and experimental fiber art projects, it combines the softness of merino with the aesthetic vibrancy of the neppy effect, offering an expressive and contemporary raw material. <\/p>\n
